Features

• Smooth movement
• Customizable
• No dependencies
• Fast, lightweight and no images
• Uses requestAnimationFrame

Installation

• Using npm: npm install react-native-typing-animation --save
• Using Yarn: yarn add react-native-typing-animation

Example

import React from "react";
import { TypingAnimation } from 'react-native-typing-animation';

class Example extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <TypingAnimation />
    );
  }
}

Advanced Example

import React from "react";
import { TypingAnimation } from 'react-native-typing-animation';

class Example extends React.Component {
  render() {
    return (
      <TypingAnimation 
        dotColor="black"
        dotMargin={3}
        dotAmplitude={3}
        dotRadius={2.5}
        dotX={12}
        dotY={6}
      />
    );
  }
}
